Fall 2025

Description:

We are interested in understanding the impact of the current events (e.g., Aftermath of the civil unrest events) on college students' perceived levels of social connectedness. Interested students will be asked to complete a survey that should take approximately 30-40 minutes. To be eligible, students must be a current college student enrolled in a course that accepts REP points. The survey can only be completed once for 2 REP points. There are no direct risks or benefits to participation. However, students may experience some discomfort when reflecting on current events. Students who have completed this study in a previous semester can complete it again. Upon signing up for the study, students will receive an email with the survey link.
